This is basically a surfer's beach, and since it is quite a distance from the main beach, and thus…read morethe flags, then it is probably not one of those beaches that it is good to swim at, unless of course, you like to live dangerously. I would suggest that this is a quiet beach, then again, considering that it happens to be in the middle of a national park, then that goes without saying. However, considering that it does tend to be popular with surfers, I probably wouldn't designate this as a place to go for a swim.

Amazing beach situated towards the end of the pathway…read more I took a stroll along the lighthouse trail the previous day to stake out which beach I liked best for the following day. Wategos won hands down. The others were too busy. I happened to get lucky and my beach day was the first day of sun & warmth after weeks of rain. Due to this, the beach was quite crowded. Wategos provided ample sand to find a spot so that was a plus. Truth be told, any of the beaches along the path are gorgeous but for something a little more low key, I recommend Wategos or little Wategos.

There is sort of something about the beach down at Byron Bay that seems to attract anybody and…read moreeverybody. Well, not quite because there is a sort of person that seems to like this particular beach, and they are probably the young, or the young at heart. As for me, well, I wouldn't necessarily consider it to me one of those beaches that really grabs my attention. I was okay, but then again I'm not really a beachy sort of person.

Byron Bay . . . how long have you got?…read more Depending on who you ask, Byron is either Heaven, or Heaven. Everyone loves it sick, bro, in fact there's very little not to like. The backpackers? The prices? Yes, and sure, but compared to avalanche of good things about this place, these pale into insignificance. Now, I'm a beach-goer of some 30-odd years experience, and this might very well be the most epic and welcoming beach in Australia. Split by a rock wall there's one huge flat swimmers paradise to the right, and to the left a shipwreck and a surfing Valhalla. Don't even get me started on Wategos. Sit on the grassy hill and watch the giant martian moon come up after sunset and hang over the beach like a glowing spaceship. Sip wine. Strum a guitar. Smoke bongs. Whatever your pleasure, it's pretty much game on at Byron. Love. Love love love. In the words of an American colleague in her truly awful Australian accent: "Bist ivva!"

The views from the look out to the beach are so perfect. You can hear the roar of the ocean from…read morethe tent park. Flat rock also has great facilities which are kept clean and tidy. They are also serviced twice a day. If you're looking for a cheap get away it's about $30 for two people per day and $10 per person after that. An excellent park with a big family feel to it where campers help each other out and are extremely friendly.

Well, as a beach this place isn't too bad, though it is a bit of a hike from the centre of town…read more That probably isn't too much of an issue though considering that there does happen to be some shops, and cafes, nearby. The beach itself is quite nice, and rather calm, but that is also not surprising considering that the area has been turned into a sheltered harbour. There are also quite a few facilities around here as well.

This is a good beach, nice ocean and water but sand taste like cows direhae. It smelt a little of…read morelike pigs breath but a good beach

Beautiful beach along the path to the lighthouse. You can't…read morego wrong with any of the beaches really so I would say it's more about privacy and preference. Some beaches get more crowded than others so I would recommend taking a walk along the bridge and pathway first to see which one you like best. The path is close to Rae's & there is also a little beach hut/restaurant called the Pass cafe that is open during the afternoon so this is a nice beach to be able to grab food nearby when you get hungry. I miss Byron often..I hope I get to go back soon!
